Artist in Residence Sessions

Invite Mandy to take up residence for a day in your school or public library, painting a canvas from start to finish incorporating one or more characters from her books. Each canvas is an original and no two are ever the same.

Students and library visitors are welcome to observe, ask questions and generally have a good chat about everything painting. Subjects covered include materials used, the mixing process of paint and the benefits of creating colour charts.
